History for coochiee

Sounds promising. Oct - AFC or CONCACAF, Nov - UEFA, Jan - OFC qualifying in Qatar, March - AFC or CONCACAF, June - warmup against Socceroos in NZ (can but hope), then Intercontinental playoffs. Could be quite a full program ahead for the AWs. Fingers crossed.

“I think it's critical that we try and bring a large number of the players that were with us in Japan back together and then bring other players in, that are based around either Europe or the US.

“It's not an easy operation. It's tough getting the games, as everybody will be aware, but we're going to make it happen.

“We're very determined that it's going to happen and if that's going to mean a few staff members being based over in Europe for a couple of months, then so be it.

“We're just champing at the bit to get it going again.”

There are no European opponents available in the October window, so New Zealand Football will likely have to look to the Middle East and west Asia, where Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, and Uzbekistan are among the nations yet to organise fixtures.

In November, there are several European countries with dates free, including the Czech Republic, who made the quarterfinals at Euro 2020 in July, and Lithuania, the All Whites’ most recent opponents.

Managed isolation and quarantine requirements are set to rule players based in Australia and New Zealand out of any matches arranged later this year, but there should be enough players based in Europe and the US available for Hay to assemble a squad.

That group grew by one this week, with midfielder-turned-defender Gianni Stensness on the move from Australia to Norway following a strong Olympic campaign.

While Hay is busy preparing for the end of 2021, he is also hoping to soon have some clarity as to what the start of 2022 will look like for the All Whites.

An Oceania World Cup qualifying tournament is set to take place in January in the Middle East, as local venues were unviable as a result of Covid-19 border restrictions, with the winner advancing to an intercontinental playoff in June for one of the final two spots in the tournament, which has been moved from its usual place in the middle of the year to November and December.

The best team from Oceania will play either the fourth-best team from North and Central America, the fifth-best team from Asia, or the fifth-best team from South America in that playoff, with a draw to determine the exact matchup expected to take place soon.

“I know they're looking closely at having the OFC qualifiers in Qatar,” Hay said.

“Hopefully that happens. I think that would be a great place to host them, particularly with the World Cup being there later that year, but we're arming up for that, and then the Intercontinental playoff, should we make it that far.
